[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Farmer Ted:
Sashimi is a great way to go; it's a little more flexible than UC in my opinion, and I think it's a good idea to import your settings and install your cabs after you've messed around with the new ROM instead of during customization. That way, you know what cabs to install. I've got a small library of some useful reg settings over here, as well as some settings files and what-not that you can install to back up things (I need to update it one of these days). I've also got a step-by-step that does an ok job of backing up manila settings (it's far from perfect). In the very least, you should back up reg keys that hold registration info for software you've bought, like sk tools or mobile shell. It's easy to find the keys, and you really don't want to waste your time re-entering crap like that every time you flash, do you?

I agree, though, you don't want to do a wholesale import of the entire registry, which is what Sprite backup will do for you. That's just crazy. You want to be as selective as possible. I think that even using something like the rom upgrade backup mode with spb backup is a bad idea. There's a good chance you'll over-write some nice performance tweaks cooked in by the chef with old reg settings that don't work as well. You'll also never really know how well the new rom works, because you won't get to use it with the proper settings.

Is there any good software for backing up email account settings? I hate setting them all up after each rom flash.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] tyguy:
Backing up email accounts and settings

I use SPB backup, well worth the money, to back up my PIM data and emails.

Didn't miss a single beat over God knows how many flashes.

I just back up prior flashing, flash, restore, done.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Beeble:
I have both Sprite & PIM running scheduled backups every day - but after a flash only use PIM to restore to prevent the registry complications.

Also have a decent UC setup installing apps, editing the registry for me etc, and have made some cab files (or edited install cabs) to register anything which requires it.

I've found that syncing with activsync before running the PIM restore prevents me getting duplicate contacts / meetings, but this might just be because i have a setting wrong!

Never tried Sashimi, i got UC working, and it does everything i need it to!

@ Maxh - i have an XML file which is called in the UC setup which restores all my e-mail accounts and settings (only leaves the password blank for me). UC isnt easy to get sorted first time, so have some patience, and build it up slowly (mine calls 33 cabs & 16 XML files, so if i change anything, i dont have to re-write the whole thing, just edit out the removed / changed file)

people should realize though that

take

joe have a tmobile branded rom version 1.234 that his device came with

joe upgrades to custom blabla rom version 1.567 don't like it and want to go back

joe will not get more back by flashing a backup he made himself of the 1.234 rom

then he will be just flashing the rom 1.234 he can download at tmobile

a rom is a rom and it makes no difference if it was the very bits originally stored on his device

then a rom from the site as long as version and branding is the same

Hi guys, i have recently flashed my uni with the awesome TML v8.81 Rom, I noticed there is a Flash Disk under My device. What's the purpose of that? Could anyone tell me what's the difference between installing software under my device and flash disk?

Many thanks:rolleyes:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] Xcellweb:
id like to know this too, as it seems the flash disk removes 15MB or so of much needed RAM, what is the purpose of it, so far I have installed everything on normal storage, should I be installing things like Opera on the flash disk because it runs faster?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] responderman:
Nice answer that!

Now here is where it gets confusing:confused: I own a G4 with Tomals Rom on it and it has flash disk on it, I always thought it wasn't meant to. It does work too. I keep other small apps on it, it seems to load as fast as main memory. SD cads have a small time lag on a soft reset, so anything that needs to load on start up needs to be on board not SD. I'm not a cook so i'm sure there is a good answer but I often wondered why memory can't be repartitioned over to ram instead of flash disk or storage?

Jay
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] -Jonny-:
Yes, I think that wiki is wrong. I'm sure it's the ExtendedROM that's only on G3, whereas FD is down to the cook.

Hardware constraint on Uni means you can't partition Storage (or FD etc) over to Program Memory (RAM).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development] responderman:
No I get extended rom now too. things have moved on since the WiKi was made I guess.:)

Hey can anyone build an application for searching a sms with a keyword...i mean i have like 12000 Smses its damn tough to find smses....

anyone having an expertise to develop such an Application?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] _TB_TB_:
The built-in Search app has this capability.

Just select "Messaging" from the drop-down "Type" list.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] piggygotfried:
Hm, I just tried that...it seems like it doesn't search through every single message...even though it takes a bit of time.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dnetzone:
i would find sms by a keyword..

for eg say i want to find an sms which has "cool" in it.. with the application..you would just type cool and hit search..it will give the results of all sms which has cool keyword in it..

i hope u understand now!!

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] larsjeee:
.rar files are archived files (compressed files)

you can unpack them with winrar, on the pc, or with winrar for ppc (for unpacking with the device itself)

the best way to unpack these .rar files is on your pc, and then copy the .cab file to your ppc, to start installing the game.

or use the instalation program included in the .rar file if it is an .exe file

a program will be installed to your pc, and the program will install and copy everything to your ppc.

if the game has no installation, only an .exe file and some data files, copy al the files to a new map on your ppc and click on the .exe (with an file explorer)

grtz.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] loomx:
download it on your phone, then connect your phone to a pc transfer the file to the pc and install it that way?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] GreatDay:
I've never felt so stupid. I've got Unrar on my computer and it seems to be unacking things, but it does it in a heartbeat and then I don't know where it's sending the unpacked files; i can't find them anywhere. where the heck do I look. The program doesn't seem to have a screen or any functions; it's doing something in the background AND making me feel like an idiot. Anyone got a "Well duh!" to help me blush?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] supersanj:
right click the rar file and click extract here.

It will extract it to the same location you have the rar file.

Cheers for the suggestions i shall check em out.

Just thought id update you. Coreplayer does indeed play mp4a. Thank you very much, i will also check out kinoma player to see if it is just a nicer program to use. cheers again :)

Here is my problem ... I DO NOT want WA3 to modify "Start Manu" and I want to keep original big menu which comes with HD (Dutty 3.3)

But I'm not able to do it :( No settings in WA3 help me. I know many of you are WA3 experts. Can you help me ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] odm3xda:
i am using wisbar advance and i never thought about that :) i actuallly like wisbar advance menu cause it gives the option to release background images and can be fully customized to look even better than original one with any background solid or picture and and fond any color so if you are having troubles with it try to enable large start menu from wisbar settings - start menu and check the box you can even adjust font size, type and color to make it look exactly like original htc or better :) from wisbar settings - themes - wisbar theme - menu - customize - start menu and enjoy changing font color, size, type, every thing
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tikejhya:
i had same problem so if you go through this process it would should do:

wisebar setting - taskbar - in assignments tab - button name = startmenu

Hello

I have an many XDA Orbits in a fleet that I want to update with a program to lockdown the XDA slightly. I can remotely update the lockdown CAB file to the storage card and then get the CAB file to run.

The problem I face is that I need to somehow automatically select the lockdown software to install on the Storage Card. Basically to avoid the end user being prompted to select a storage area for the application. I wish to pre-define it somehow...

Any suggests would be great.

Thank you

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zoomee:
SPB Mobile Shell 3 is pretty awesome.

The ONLY downsides I found with it were:

A)- Occasional complete lockups (not 100% sure if it was cooked-ROM related though to be honest) - maybe this new patch will address this.

B)- When reading / composing emails and texts it reverts to the standard windows mobile interface (shame really as I prefer the manilla texts/emails screens) - To be honest anything non-standard would have probably done.

Two issues above are the only things stopping me from buying it and running it forever and ever and ever and ever ;)

-can i still get themse like ahome on jf v1.5?

-can i upgrade to an 8gb microsd anytime after i rooted my phone and updated it?

thanks i really appreciate it
[G1 Android Development] Tawm:
As far as im aware yes to all of those, you should backup your contacts (if they aren't on your Google account) etc
[G1 Android Development] savethechicken:
You will not lose these unless you have previously turned off your auto sync or have no idea what your email is. Tip if you don't know your email just go to your IM and it will be listed under Gtalk.

Apps: You will have to redownload from the Market under my downloads (you have to agree to the terms before you can view them), unless you back up the ones you can with a program like astro.

Im running an 8GB SDCARD no worries there in fact you can use up to a 16gb card

As for Ahome and stuff like that I dont use them but what i have read and seen just by doing a little searching here, they are still working on the 1.5 ROM.
